I'm tied to Athena.

He was most afraid of his own scolding, so he would definitely come back alive.

In the passage of the dungeon, Li Yun and Tiona were still the vanguards, walking at the front of the team, followed by thirteen members of Loki's family and ten members of Hephaestus' family.

This team is very strong, with four LV5s, two LV6s, and the rest are all LV3 and LV4...well, plus Li Yun, who is LV2.

Relying on Li Yun's ability, the group walked towards the underground city at an extremely fast speed. In just half an hour, they reached the seventh floor.

However, almost the same scene as last time happened.

Li Yun stopped and around the corner, four very panicked adventurers came running over.

"Is this... a copy of the last scene?" Tiona tilted her head and then looked at Li Yun.

"No, I didn't smell any blood, and there were no signs of fighting on the body." Shaking his head, Li Yun felt that they just encountered some powerful monster, so they fled in such a panic.

"Is this... the expedition team of Loki's family!?" The four people were shocked when they saw Finn bringing people. Li Yun walked up and asked, "What happened?"

The four adventurers recalled something and their bodies began to tremble again.

"We have met the Minotaur."

"Ok?"

"I mean, the Minotaur! The Minotaur is now here on the upper level!" The adventurers first suppressed their voices, and then let out a painful roar.

When Diona and the others heard about the unusual situation where a monster from the middle layer appeared on the upper layer, their faces changed drastically.

"Excuse me. Can you tell us in detail what you saw?" Finn walked forward on behalf of the troops, and the man who looked like the captain of the adventurers began to speak.

"We were exploring the dungeon as usual until just now, when we were deep in the single path leading to the cave... and we found the Minotaur."

His face was livid, and he seemed to be still immersed in the fear of the Minotaur. "In the cave, we saw a white-haired kid fighting with the Minotaur, but we were hit by the monster's skill Roar. After being scared away by the skill, we fled here."

"White-haired little devil?" Li Yun suddenly thought of something. He tightened the sickle in his hand, and the favor of the earth was expanded to the extreme.

The seventh floor...no, the eighth floor...no...The Earth's Favor can only cover the two floors of the upper area. It seems that the Minotaur is on the lower level.

"The Minotaur we encountered on the ninth floor."

The sickle fell to the ground, and Li Yun said calmly: "Finn, I'm sorry, I have to leave the team temporarily!"

"Okay, we'll catch up soon." Without asking too much about what happened, the leader of the Dwarf Tribe nodded.

PS: When I woke up early in the morning, Hill hugged me and kissed me (laughs)

Chapter 96: Sleep, the Battle-Experienced King

Li Yun was moving very fast and he chose the shortest route.

Whenever he encountered a monster, he would simply pick up his knife and chop it in half. In just a minute or two, he reached the ninth floor.

After arriving at the ninth floor, an unnatural silence penetrated my eardrums, just like the seventeenth floor when I returned after completing the mission on the twenty-fourth floor, so quiet...there was no sound at all.

But Li Yun's skills captured Bell's figure. Yes, Bell was fighting, fighting with the Minotaur.

The distant howling was mixed with human screams.

A Lv1 junior adventurer could not hold out for long when attacked by a Minotaur. Although Li Yun taught him combat techniques, the Minotaur was not an ordinary LV2 monster. It was the scariest and strongest LV2 monster in the middle layer.

Bell now has a visible but absolutely unbridgeable distance between himself and this monster!

But...when Li Yun moved forward, he saw a little human covered in blood.

"Adventurer...Sir...please, save...Sir Bell..." The girl, whose forehead was broken by a stone and was bleeding severely, begged and fell in front of Li Yun.

Her chestnut eyes were blurry and she couldn't focus. She supported herself on the ground with both hands and shouted breathlessly, "Please save him, save Master Bell...!!!"

As if all the strength in her body was used up in one breath, the dwarf girl let out a heart-wrenching cry of plea.

"You did very well." Li Yun caught her body. This little human girl was desperately asking for help and struggling desperately. Even though there was no one in front of her and she was already exhausted, she did not give up asking for help.

Not for himself, but for the young man fighting the monster in front.

The response saved her teenager, and now she wanted to save him.

"Livilia, I'll leave this child to you. I can go on the rest of the way by myself." Li Yun handed Lily to the elf royal family who followed closely, then picked up the sickle and slowly disappeared in the passage.

"What the hell is going on?" The members of Loki's family looked at it all in confusion.

"Although Liyun asked us to wait here, I have a bad feeling." Finn licked his thumb, "Aisi, Tiona, go and see."

"Okay!" The two nodded, and then rushed out like the wind.

"Then I will come and save my compatriots." The girl in Finn's arms cried unconsciously. Even though she could no longer see people or remember things, she kept saying, 'Save him, please...save him.'

In front, Li Yun dragged his sickle and came to the last cave before the cave where Bell was.

"That's enough." A body as heavy as a mountain blocked Li Yun's way.

In this spacious rectangular space, where there were neither monsters nor traps, there was only one person standing.

Over two meters tall, wearing protective gear, with a body as huge as a rock, and strong limbs made of muscles as strong as steel.

His eyes, which were the same earth-red as his hair, looked at Li Yun who came here, and then he narrowed his eyes.

"Ota." Li Yun did not stop moving forward, but his pace changed from running to walking slowly.

The leader of Freya's family, Ota, is a first-level adventurer who is hostile to Loki's family.

The wild boar warrior stood solemnly at the end of the cave. He stood in front of the only passage leading to the target area, blocking the entrance to the rear passage with his huge back.

Seeing that Li Yun still didn't stop, Ota grabbed the huge backpack on his left shoulder and tore it open in one breath with his rock-like fingers.

From the torn pieces of cloth, countless weapons emerged!

The weapons made a swish sound and then stuck into the ground.

"Half a month ago, I was wondering why the seventeenth floor was so quiet, and why you, as the leader of Freya's clan, were alone on the seventeenth floor..." Li Yun stopped and through his ability, he was able to understand that Bell was not in danger of life now.

Therefore, he still has room for confrontation.

Ota quietly pulled out the sword stuck in the ground without saying a word. He had no intention of taking the initiative to attack.

"That's what Freya ordered. She deliberately asked you to find a Minotaur, train it, make it a strengthened species, and then go and cause trouble for Bell. Right?"

Li Yun's words still did not shake the Pigman Warrior's seriousness, "So what?"

"I can more or less guess what that woman is thinking." The scythe was raised quietly. Facing the fierce warrior (king), the boy was calm but angry. "Because the Minotaur has covered Bell's soul with dust, and the shadow in his heart prevents him from truly taking his own adventure."

"You came up with this idea to make Bell go one step further and shine even brighter."

"That's a great idea, Ota. I've also thought about it. As long as the kid completes my training and becomes my apprentice, he will naturally become a strong man. At that time, he will be able to easily erase the shadow of his past."

"It's just that while I was considering whether to do it, you have already done it for me....I have to thank you, Ota."

"But ah....you crossed the line."

The black pupils stared at the orc. At that moment, the orc saw that the black-haired boy's pupils turned into snake pupils, the same beast pupils as his!

"That's my disciple. When will it be your turn to give him guidance?"

Unable to move....like a frog being stared at by a snake, a speechless feeling of fear permeated the surroundings. The only Lv7 adventurer who reigned supreme over Orario was too scared to move!

"Is this... intimidation!?" A powerful being can overwhelm the enemy with its aura. Ota had been intimidated by a powerful monster before. But since he reached level 7, he has never encountered a monster stronger than himself.

And the current situation.....this feeling of being stared at by a monster.....

"snake!?"

In Ota's eyes, the reflection of the snake appeared.

It was a huge black snake with mysterious patterns, and its erect pupils looked like... Li Yun's eyes.

The blade flashed through the air, Ota saw nothing, noticed nothing, and then, everything went dark before his eyes.

Li Yun had passed by his tall body at some point, and the sickle swung gently, throwing the blood on the sickle onto the wall.

The black-haired boy slowly disappeared into the passage, leaving behind only the orc who had lost his breathing and the murmuring words that filled the passage.

"Sleep, fierce one. Forever...

Chapter 97 Adventure

My feet were frozen, and a familiar yet strange voice came from a distance.

It was very similar to the devilish sound clip that was engraved in his mind. The sound for a moment was like a flame, burning every nerve in Bell.

Like an unoiled machine, Bell turned his head stiffly and looked behind him.

His breathing became disordered, and the fear surging from the soles of his feet made him unable to move. The fear coming from every blood vessel, every cell, and every corner of his bones made his body tremble.

He couldn't make a sound, as if his throat was blocked by something, and he couldn't make a sound. His mind was screaming "impossible" like a child in distress.

It appears.

As Bell continued to pray to God, a figure with a red body, broken horns and a big sword appeared in front of him.

It wasn't that his premonition had come true, but that Bell had guessed it long ago. After all, there was no way he could forget that guy's voice.

He didn't know how many times he had dreamed about it, how many times he had seen that figure overlap with other monsters. He couldn't count how many nights he had been frightened by this guy to the point that even sleeping became a luxury.

"Oh oh!!!!" The roaring voice and the heavy footsteps were just like waking up the next day of a normal life to find that the world had come to an end. Bell...had met his greatest enemy!

Why did the Minotaur appear on the ninth floor... No, now is not the time to care about these things.

He knew that this was not the first time he had experienced this. He was familiar with this helpless, irrational situation. He was familiar with this indescribable feeling of despair.

He had experienced this thrill before.

"Oh oh!!!!" The mad bull roared, and what came like a wave was the intimidation and extraordinary power that could not be ignored.

The terrifying tsunami almost caused Bell and Lily to fall backwards.

Then, the guy took out his blood-stained silver sword and stepped on the ground.

Unable to move his eyes or body, he was stared at by the red and black bull and lost the ability to move.

Maybe... closer to giving up.

He promised to be a hero, he promised to catch up with Mr. Li Yun, he promised to meet a beautiful girl... But now, fear has made him lose his courage!

So horrible, so ....

That monster scared him to death.

Tears oozed from the corners of his eyes, and his upper and lower teeth were chattering. He no longer knew what his expression looked like.

When people are in desperate situations, they will have two behaviors. One is to stay where they are and wait to die; the other is to fight back and fight to the death.

Bell stood there motionless. The Minotaur raised his sword and swung it down.

But he didn't die.

When he was frightened by fear, Lily saved him at the risk of her own life.

Because she was saving him, Lily was hit by the stones chopped by the big knife, and a hole was suddenly made in her head, and scarlet blood oozed out.

Looking at Lily who was injured while saving him, Bell somehow moved.

Are you afraid? Yes, I am afraid, very afraid, very scary, but ah!

How could I let this child die in front of me! How could I let this child die here because of me!

He squeezed out all the strength in his body and fought the Minotaur almost instinctively.

He knew that as long as he kept fighting, as long as he was still alive, the Minotaur would stay here, and the adventurers on the upper level would not be in danger... as long as, he was still here!

Run when the situation is bad, run when you are scared, and call for help when your life is in danger.

It is not shameful even if you are looked down upon or criticized by others.

The most shameful thing is to be indecisive and stand still.

Defeat it, defeat the past, defeat yourself, it doesn’t matter if you are afraid, it doesn’t matter if you are scared!

Bell Crane, now....only now, stand up!

The bull raged wildly around, the sword in its hand facing the young man's flying dagger. Roars and shouts intertwined, the two sides attacked each other.

Sparks flew, blood splattered, and the sharp sound of metal clashing was endless.
